Demi Lovato's 'Skyscraper' Receives High Marks From Hollywood

Demi Lovato debuted the lead single off her upcoming fourth album late Monday evening, quickly shooting to the top of iTunes. Lovato’s fans, whom she affectionately calls “Lovatics,” have been generous with their Twitter praise for the heartfelt ballad “Skyscraper,” responding to the singer in droves.

Joining in the chorus of support are quite a few notable names, including pal Selena Gomez, Katy Perry and Kim Kardashian.

Pretty Little Liars actress Lucy Hale was one of the first to tweet, “just heard Skyscraper…at a loss…so inspiring”

Perry gushed, “The new song Skyscraper by @ddlovato is pure perfection. Her voice is one of the BEST undiscovered beauties. Can’t wait for the full record.”

Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentzchimed in, “amazing when people put themselves into their art completely #np skyscraper by @ddlovato”

Though the track debuted with very little fanfare or promotion, Kardashian reminded her followers to keep an eye out for it on Monday.

“I am so excited to download @ddlovato new song #SKYSCRAPER! It’s out tonight! EVERYONE MUST DOWNLOAD IT!!! So proud of u Dem!” she wrote.

The single is Lovato’s first since entering a rehab facility in late 2010. She sought treatment for undisclosed mental and physical issues, later revealing a struggle with anorexia, bulimia and bipolar disorder.

In an interview with Ryan Seacrest, Lovato detailed her emotional journey while recording the track.
“I was doubled over, just in pain. I remember thinking, ‘This is kind of my cry for help’ back then, because I hadn’t spoken to anyone about these issues,” she said. “And I hadn’t gotten the help that I needed.”

The Skyscraper music video will premiere on E! News and E! Online Wednesday at 7 p.m. ET/PT.
